​Go for Henry. Larger dust capacity and suction. Even the newer 620watt ones are better.

Do not buy one of these for carpets they are appalling and upright is far better this just gets stuck to the carpet and doesn't move .More designed for hard floors .

I bought one and it's useless for my house still got 4.5 years warranty used once .tesco wouldn't take it back within 28 days .

These hoovers are good for a few months but after that they lose there power and not the same anymore .

dc40 animal gets blocked far too often and hence has to be totally taken apart I have done this now 4 times. Despite being named animal it is not fit for purpose as the animal hair blocks the very narrow pipes. Better vacuums out there trust me.

I don't even have animals and had to take the whole thing apart, including the plastic pipes connecting to the unit, it was an absolute pain getting all the fluff and crap that had blocked up (very poor design) but got the suction back after clearing out the connectors. Wished I had waited to get an offer on an upright

A fantastic lightweight hoover that does everything you could possibly want! Granted my mum ordered this off my account, but I love it! You realy can hoover the wall like the advert!! The suction control is brilliant, with settings being adaptable to wood flooring, thick carpet, thin carpet etc. It's even handy for cleaning the cars!

Loving all this down voting on dyson as it loses suction after a month.. I know they're bagless but you still need to empty it

As far as cleaning performance goes, it's ok should you maintain it and clean the filters and bits and bobs out frequently, not the best but definitely not the worst. I think I bought my 40 about 5 years ago for £300 too.

I'd have been much happier at this price

I watched quite a few vacuum cleaner videos before I bought my new-ish Vax Air 3 (albeit from Amazon Warehouse for around £35!!). One vacuum reviewer on Youtube (though there's many out there) ibaisiac, recommends Sebo or Miele bagged cleaners as he thinks the obsessive cleaners amongst us would be horrified at the mess involved cleaning out bagless vacs.

Build quality is way down nowadays as cheaper cleaners are Chinese-made (but Sebo are an exception and very solidly built, particularly).

He reckons Dyson are overpriced and not built to last. I know my mum often has her Animal upright taken apart and serviced by Dyson!

PS - I will be fair though, although he has little respect for Dyson he is actually complimentary about the performance of the DC40 Multi-Floor, watched his review last night (apparently the Animal is exactly the same but comes with the turbo-tool) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYjdCb4cVms

..I am assuming, of course, that Tesco's DC40 is the 2015 version he's reviewing.

All prices have now gone back up. Was waiting for the animal upright to come back in stock

26th Sep 2016

Code has expired sadly.

30th Sep 2016

Does anyone know when the £199 price ended? I ordered (well a family member ordered it for me) the DC28c on the 24th September & have been charged £300 minus the £25 code. I wasn't sent the email with the price so have only just found out upon receiving my credit card bill. I know I checked the price late night on the 23rd & it was still £199 but can't remember if I checked on the 24th, I know the code expired on the 25th but need to know when the price officially changed to prove the overcharge or else I'm taking it back.
